These are challenges or issues you might encounter related to gender and development:

• 1. Gender-Based Discrimination: Unfair treatment based on gender, often resulting in unequal access to opportunities in schools, workplaces, and society.
• 2. Lack of Gender Sensitivity: The absence of awareness or respect for different gender roles and identities, leading to biased decisions or exclusion.
• 3. Sexual Harassment and Abuse: Unwanted sexual behavior or advances that harm an individual's safety, dignity, or mental well-being.
• 4. Lack of Safe Spaces: Environments where individuals feel unsafe, judged, or unable to express themselves freely due to fear or discrimination.
• 5. Limited Representation: Underrepresentation of women and LGBTQ+ individuals in leadership and decision-making roles, limiting diverse perspectives.
